Part of the benefit of Markdown is that you can view the raw source and still get useful info out of it. But this site prerendered the Markdown and served HTML which defeats part of the purpose.
A better option would be to use something like https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/ https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/ and serve the MD/HTML file. Then you can get a client-rendered HTML (https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/features.md.html https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/features.md.html) or view the raw MD (https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/features.md.html?noformat https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/features.md.html?noforma...) if the browser doesn't support HTML.
Markdeep is good at progressively mixing HTML & MD so you can choose how much of each to put in to your page. I use it for mostly MD + MathJax notes + some HTML/JS/SVG/Canvas/WebGL for when I want dynamic graphics in my notes.
- mutant 4y agoThese websites didn't render for shit on my mobile. I had to zoom in and out. I'd never subject a reader to this kind of horrible UI.
